With its crystal-clear waters, ancient walled cities and island-dotted coastline, Croatia is made for multi centre holidays. Whether you’re after sun-drenched beaches, historic charm or a relaxed pace of life, you’ll find it all here – and thanks to short travel times and well-connected ferry routes, it’s easy to experience multiple destinations in one seamless trip. Start in the lively port city of Split or the atmospheric old town of Dubrovnik, then hop between islands like Hvar, Korčula and Brač for a mix of nature, beaches and local culture. Each place has its own personality, from vineyard-draped hills to quiet coves and buzzing waterfronts. At eShores, our Croatia multi centre holidays are designed to give you just the right balance of exploration and downtime. You can pick from our suggested routes below, or we’ll tailor a bespoke itinerary around your interests, pace and budget.
Croatia is made for multi centre holidays, with its mix of historic cities, enchanting islands and breathtaking landscapes. You can begin in Dubrovnik or Split, where medieval streets and lively squares pair with stunning coastal views, then sail across the Adriatic to explore some of the country’s islands, each with its own character. Hvar is known for its nightlife, Korčula for its vineyards, and Mljet for its unspoilt national park, making island hopping here truly unforgettable. On the mainland you can enjoy wine tasting or head inland to natural wonders like Plitvice Lakes and Krka waterfalls, where emerald pools and cascading falls create some of Europe’s most stunning scenery.
How could you pick just one place, when a Croatia multi centre holiday lets you combine cities, islands and landscapes into one seamless itinerary.
Croatia has plenty to offer. You can wander through charming old towns, explore Venetian palaces, or stroll along lively promenades. Food and wine lovers will enjoy sampling fresh seafood, pasta dishes and local wines, while those looking for adventure can hike through pine forests, kayak along the Adriatic coast or sail past hidden coves. National parks such as Plitvice and Krka are also unmissable, with wooden walkways leading to turquoise lakes and dramatic waterfalls. Whether you are exploring history, indulging in local flavours or enjoying the great outdoors, Croatia has experiences to suit every traveller.
The best time to visit Croatia depends on your preferences. The warmest time is between May and September. July and August offer hot, sunny days but can be busy, especially in the most popular spots. June and September are often the sweet spot: warm weather, swimmable seas, and fewer crowds.
Island hopping in Croatia is surprisingly straightforward. Reliable ferry and catamaran services connect the mainland with many islands, including Hvar, Korčula, Brač and Mljet. Most journeys are short, scenic and stress-free, meaning more time for sunbathing, exploring and soaking up the views!

We travelled with eShores to Andalucia last year, and Emily did an amazing job of compiling an itinerary with good but affordable hotels - we would heartily recommend each one that she chose for us, and all the arrangements between cities worked beautifully. This year we have gone back to her for another holiday and…
This is my second holiday with eshore. The service I received was excellent. Kelly was very professional, understood all my requirements and booked a fantastic holiday for us. It was a very pleasant experience dealing with Kelly and definitely recommend friends to book holidays with her. A real 5 star service.
As always, our go-to girl came through with a fab itinerary for our very last minute booking to USA. Kadie arranged another 3 city break and made sure everything fitted in with our requirements. Always use eShores for our bespoke long distance travels and they never fail to provide excellent service.
eShores is a fantastic company for crafting tailor made itineraries. I have just booked my fourth trip with them, this time to Colombia. Gavin was exceptionally helpful and nothing was too much trouble in meeting my wishes even though it requred a lot of back and forth adjustments. If this is anything like my previous…
Matt Got us everything we wanted for our USA trip
I have yet to take the holiday so I can't comment on the hotels and transport provided etc but Nick was very helpful with the booking. Despite me asking numerous questions he sorted out exactly what I asked for within my budget. Thank you
So far our experience with eShores has been great. Of course the real test will be when we are on holiday so hopefully this will continue :)
Nick did exactly what I asked for, was prompt and helpful. Couldn't have asked for anything more.
We had been recommended eshores by a friend who had holidayed in Croatia. We phoned and then used email to communicate with Chris Eaves who made the whole process very easy. He adjusted the holiday to exactly how we wanted it and was very speedy in his replies. We are hoping the holiday goes as…
The trip has been planned with our requirements fulfilled and also given options to change where we wanted. Looking forward to the trip and hope that all goes as smoothly as the booking side
So this is my second time using eshores and I won’t be going anywhere else to book my future holidays. I gave Claire a horrible job in finding what I needed and kept changing the brief but she persevered and found me the best holiday. I’m going in September and can’t wait. I’ll be back…
Excellent prompt service from Michelle. Hotels she suggested all look amazing and the itinerary for the four areas of Italy looked perfectly planned .
Nick was very understanding in as much as we did flex the itinerary quite a bit before booking and we have a holiday package which more than meets our needs.
Great and friendly customer service from Andy, as before. Andy always goes out of his way to find a holiday that matches our requirements.
Excellent service again from Dave. Having booked with e shores on a number of occasions they now understand our parameters. Price, days types of hotels etc.
Having dealt with eShores for several years, and with Dave Felton in particular, the latest holiday arranged by the Company was done smoothly, professionally and to our total satisfaction. Well done and keep up the great service.
Talked with Dave asking for assistance to finf flights for my sister and injured niece from Edinburgh to Perth in W.A. avoiding the Middle East. Dave again came up trumps with flights to suit and at a good price. First class service much appreciated.
Our holiday with Eshores was excellent. Hannah went above and beyond getting us exactly what we wanted and suited us. We couldn’t recommend them enough. The holiday was excellent and all the hotels (this was a multi centre holiday) were well situated particularly the Aston Kona by the sea on The Big Island it truly…
Quick and easy to contact and arrange a basic holiday in Europe. Good price too.
Greek island hopping sorted to perfection. Anna listened to everything I wanted and came up with a detailed plan which exceeded all my expectations. Every island on my to do list and with a choice of hotels. Thank you Anna.
